Captain Hook Value

I know a guy with cheap stolen guns. Let me know.

Just curious what y'all think. What is a reasonable price today for a clean Captain Hook Meucci?

Thanks..
 
Oh...haha. I get it now. I don't have a ton of cues, mostly Cog's, Dayton, Runde, Coker, Blud Rifleman. Nothing really super high end. But I just always liked that Capt Hook.

If he's got any real cues in that cabinet, the Meucci is apt to stink the place up pretty good:grin-square:

(sorry, the Devil made me do it)
 
all things considered the OLDER the cue the greater the value


the M factory has had re-runs of their successful "classics" with ea series becoming more mysterious (as a rule) with regards to materials utilized and manufacturing methodology

that said i hit some balls with one of there newer "big" pin cues which was mostly wood (i think) and was impressed with the "feel"

a step in the right direction

I like the look of the Captain Hook cue as well. In fact, there are a whole bunch of earlier Meucci theme Cues that I like.
The Tomahawk, Road Agent, Hook, Music cues and others. I just wish he hadn’t compromised on materials and build quality.
If he hadn’t, I would own several..
Materials quality and flawless construction are a couple biggies....

My three elements I consider when buying a cue (in this order) are:
Playability
Design
Execution (flawless construction).

1 of 3 is not very good.....

You better factor in the cost of periodic fumigation.

For all you Meucci bashers, you have never tried one with thePRO SHAFT.
They are excellent cues and with the right person pushing it capable
of truly great runs. I know I have 5 of them.
 
Oh, I'm just teasing. I own 4 old Meuccis...three "Originals" and one "Pro Billiards Tour." I've let them down many, many more time than they've let me down.

i think the big pin cue i hit balls with had the "pro" shaft, which i liked

i also have a couple original "classics" in my cue rack, they hit okay and sound better

I'm gonna bet you that Meucci's have won more tournaments and gamblin' $$$ than all those hi-dollar pretty cues you can think of.
 
I bought a Captain Hook new back in the early 90’s. I played with it for a few years. I have no clue what I wound up doing with it.

No bet, Wise Guy...cause I know you're right. That ol' first edition JR-2 of mine was a damn good "fishin' pole." It currently rests peacefully in its own original Viking snake skin case.
